[brief introduction of pineapple]

Pineapple is a perennial evergreen herb native to the tropical rain forest of America. Its common characteristics are: the root is extremely underdeveloped, water and nutrition absorption mainly depends on leaves, like warm and humid climate. The basal leaves of pineapple are closely arranged in lotus-shaped tubes, and some of the centers are cup-shaped to store water without leakage, so it is necessary to keep the center and leaves moist during cultivation and management. In order to make its growth strong, it is also necessary to apply a small amount of foliar fertilizer to the leaf tube every 1-2 weeks, such as spraying Shibao, the specific amount depends on the instructions on the use of foliar fertilizer and the growth of flowers.

1. Soil

It can be mixed with river sand and fine serpent sawdust or general market culture soil. It is appropriate to use rotten leaf soil and 1/4 river sand to form a culture soil, or it can be wrapped and planted with moss and bark, and the soil should be loose and fertile.

two。 Moisture content

Pineapple is an epiphytic ornamental plant with weak root system, which mainly plays the role of fixing plant, and the absorption function is secondary. The water and nutrients needed for its growth and development are mainly stored in the leaf cup formed by the clasping of the leaf base and absorbed by the absorbing scales at the base of the leaf. Even if the root system is damaged or rootless, as long as there is a certain amount of water and nutrients in the leaf cup, the plant can grow normally, so watering is best directly in the leaf cup, not in the basin soil. The summer and autumn season is the peak growing season, it is necessary to sprinkle water into the leaf cup every 1-3 days, and spray the leaf surface 1-2 times a day to increase air humidity. Keep the leaf cup with water, the leaf surface is moist, and the soil is slightly dry; spray less water in winter, keep the basin soil moist and the leaf surface dry.

3. Light

Generally speaking, pineapple flowers like daylight, but there should be no strong light, otherwise the leaves will be injured. It can grow well indoors. When the temperature is below 10 degrees Celsius, it is best to move indoors.

4. Temperature

The optimum temperature of ornamental pineapple is 15-20 ℃, no less than 10 ℃ in winter, and the humidity should be kept above 70-80%. It is necessary to spray water on the plant or sprinkle water in the surrounding environment.

5. Fertilizer application

Under the conditions of dry climate, muggy heat and low humidity, the leaf edge and leaf tip of pineapple are easy to scorch, so it is necessary to keep the basin soil moist, spray water on the leaf surface once or twice a day, and the cup-shaped part of the leaf seat can be filled with water. Pineapple plants were originally parasitic plants with underdeveloped roots and only small and short roots, so do not apply too much fertilizer to prevent root rot and yellowing of leaves. It should be applied with thin fertilizer and water.
